Dalmatian Jasper: Known as the "supreme nurturer" and for balancing the yin-yang energies. This black and white form of jasper is also used for protection and to align with the Earth's energies. Handcrafted in California with natural gemstones strung with 14K gold filled beads in a frame of jeweler's brass. Our gemstones are naturally colored and thus vary making each bracelet unique. Jeweler's brass is made of 85% pure copper and 15% pure zinc, both essential minerals, of which at least copper has been scientifically proven to be absorbed through the skin.
